sched/deadline: Restrict user params max value to 2^63 ns
Michael Kerrisk noticed that creating SCHED_DEADLINE reservations
with certain parameters (e.g, a runtime of something near 2^64 ns)
can cause a system freeze for some amount of time.
The problem is that in the interface we have
u64 sched_runtime;
while internally we need to have a signed runtime (to cope with
budget overruns)
s64 runtime;
At the time we setup a new dl_entity we copy the first value in
the second. The cast turns out with negative values when
sched_runtime is too big, and this causes the scheduler to go crazy
right from the start.
Moreover, considering how we deal with deadlines wraparound
(s64)(a - b) < 0
we also have to restrict acceptable values for sched_{deadline,period}.
This patch fixes the thing checking that user parameters are always
below 2^63 ns (still large enough for everyone).
It also rewrites other conditions that we check, since in
__checkparam_dl we don't have to deal with deadline wraparounds
and what we have now erroneously fails when the difference between
values is too big.
